STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

osr-1Osmotic stress resistance protein. (643 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
unc-43
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II; Acts in the signaling of a variety of pathways and processes. Phosphorylates 'Ser-319' of daf-16 in response to stress signals, such as heat, starvation and oxidation, which plays a role in prolonging lifespan. Required for viability under chronic osmotic stress in which it acts downstream of osr-1. Has roles in locomotion, oocyte maturation, brood size, egg laying, defecation, meiotic maturation and neuronal cell fate specification. Required for the regulation of synaptic density and neuromuscular junction morphology. Regulates the [...]

sek-1
Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase sek-1; Dual specificity protein kinase which acts as an essential component of the p38 signal transduction pathway which is also composed of upstream effector nsy-1 and downstream effector pmk-1. May phosphorylate pmk-1. Downstream of CaMKII unc-43 and adapter protein tir- 1, plays a role in determining asymmetric cell fates in olfactory AWC neurons during neuronal development. Activation results in the repression of odorant receptor str-2 expression in one of the 2 AWC neurons. Involved in resistance to pathogenic Gram-positive [...]

C50D2.1
Uncharacterized protein.
   
  
 0.735
sir-2.1
NAD-dependent protein deacetylase sir-2.1; NAD-dependent deacetylase (By similarity). Required for a reduction of the 'Lys-16' acetylation of histone H4 (H4K16ac) on dosage-compensated X chromosomes in hermaphrodites. Plays a role in germ cell and somatic cell apoptosis in response to DNA damage. Functions upstream of daf-16 in the insulin-like signaling pathway, promoting daf-16 mediated transcriptional activation and increased lifespan. May also regulate lifespan independently of daf-16 by modulating the transcription of genes involved in the stress response of the endoplasmic reticu [...]
      
 0.698
mek-1
Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase mek-1; Dual specificity protein kinase which may phosphorylate kgb-1 and thereby is an essential component of the JNK pathway composed of mlk-1, mek-1 and kgb-1. May also have a synergistic role with sek-1 in phosphorylating pmk-1. Involved in the response to environmental stress including heavy metal ions (Cu(2+) and Cd(2+)), oxidative stress and starvation. In association with sek-1, regulates germline cell apoptosis in response to oxidative, osmotic and heat shock stresses. Involved in resistance to pathogenic bacteria infecti [...]
    
 
 0.667
osm-8
Osmotic avoidance abnormal protein 8; Negative regulator of the osmotic stress response. Acts via the transmembrane protein ptr-23.
   
  
 0.621
skn-1
Protein skinhead-1; Transcription factor required to specify the fate of ventral blastomeres in the early embryo, and postembryonically for the development of the intestine. Directly regulates expression of zygotically expressed med-1 and med-2 to direct mesendoderm development. Required for stl-1 mRNA up- regulation in response to oxidative stress and anoxia. Required for the up-regulation of gcs-1 and several glutathione-S-transferase mRNAs in response to oxidative stress generated during pathogenic bacterial infection. In neurons, involved in mitochondrial fusion and behavioral reco [...]
